I've been using my Kirklands for practice and my FJ/TaylorMade's for the course, but I wouldn't have any problems using them in a round. I just hope Costco never stops selling them (so I stocked up by buying a few packs...don't tell my wife).

Those Cobra XL box set golf clubs would be a good starter set for a high handicap player. They are not to expensive and from the looks of things perform really well. Goes to show you that golfers can get some quality clubs at not so expensive prices. And like you said these aren't custom made clubs but that is to be expected from a box set and also the putter grip makes the putter be open when you hit putts. But in time I bet you and others would figure out how to putt with this Cobra putter and hole some putts with it. Thank you for sharing this video. Happy golfing to you!
